In their book, “My Lover, My Friend”, Colleen and Louis Evans, Jr. write: “David and Nancy Low are one of the most exciting young couples we have met since coming to Washington. He is a financial lawyer, and she is a top flight public relations administrator…”
“After working in another state for a well-known and respected political leader, Nancy was offered a very high position in a federal government agency. This opportunity was made even more exciting by the fact that it had never before been offered to a woman. David felt the offer was a high honor and urged Nancy to accept it. He was confident he could find a job in his field in Washington. So, submitting to Nancy’s career potential, they pulled up stakes and settled here.”
“Some men would be threatened by this type of situation. If a man wanted to prove that he didn’t need other people, if he were an “emotional do-it-yourselfer,” then he might resist the emergence of his wife’s career, especially if it were an outstanding one. But David is a strong man, eager and able to become a servant to Nancy’s development. That is healthy ‘headship’ and management.”
